At Précicast, we specialize in cast parts requiring cores. This part, which resembles an elbow, is in fact a component for a robotized arm. The use of aluminum for this part allows for better heat transfer between the arm’s internal components and ambient air and in return helps increase the life cycle of internal electronic components.
One of Précicast’s main niches involves casting aluminum parts for the medical field. In fact, the torso shown in this image is used in multiple universities worldwide as a teaching aid for future physicians. Précicast supplies cast-aluminum parts to many of their customers, who then attach various electronic devices and other components, to create a finished product ready to use.
Précicast provides aluminum housings to many of their customers. These housings are cast or machined from solid aluminum blocks. This image shows a cast housing made of A356 aluminum alloy. The use of aluminum for this type of housing provides several benefits, notably its light weight and corrosion resistance characteristics as well as its strong mechanical properties for this application.
